This is a very annoying thing right now, but you can't threaten war on a subject nation. This will likely be fixed, the devs are aware of this.

If a fix is made, it'd probably make more sense to be able to threaten the overlord with war, as the subject doesn't have its own foreign policy.

you never get 100% chance to get elected as protestant leader, simply because the catholic electors participate in the vote, only to lose electorship next month.

I did suggestion thread on this, it might get changed.

That said, you WILL usually be elected in the end, so it's not that big of a deal. But if you are a protestant leader OUTSIDE the HRE, yeah, it would get annooying if you can't get elected within couple decades, even tbough you led protestants to victory.
Yeah, I'm outside the HRE (England) so I take it it's far from guaranteed but is possible? Well I've got a good few years left until the leagues start up anyway so I'll see how it goes until then. Thanks!

In my current game as France it's 1608 and the "Global Trade"-Institution still hasn't spawned. Mouseovering the requirements tells me I have all of them except "Champagne is the most valuable trade node" which is strange since my trade capital is in Genoa. I never had an institution spawn that much later then the earliest possible start date. Any known bugs or just unlucky?

See this thread.

I hate the counter distance,

When I zoom out in political map mode and the nation names appear I would really appreciate it if the army counters would disappear leaving me an unobstructed view of that gorgeous map.

Please tell me, is this possible?

I know it already does remove the counters but that only happens when I have zoomed out so far the map is too small to appreciate.

A question regarding HRE mechanics.
Austria is the Emperor, the HRE is catholic.

I just went to war against Austria in support of rebels and won. After this war Austria is
1. orthodox
2. constitutional republic

Why is Austria still the Emperor?

No, they only passed the first reform.

Edit:
I think i understand why. The only 3 remaining catholic HRE members are free cities.

Edit2: it was actually due to hereditary rule. The remaining non-orthodox HRE members were protestant, not catholic. My mistake.

Yeah, I'm outside the HRE (England) so I take it it's far from guaranteed but is possible?

I'd try and feed the catholic electors to anyone inside HRE, so only protestant electors stay.

Then you can see who the protestant electors vote for.

Still not 100% guarantee, but you *can* be elected emperor as league leader outside of HRE.

Okay, what am I missing this time? I am Sweden, Commonwealth was quite dumb (so I thought) and moved a 40k stack to Osel. I blocked both streets with my Galleys and lo and behold, the Commonwealth stack just runs off. I was really happy thinking I just isolated 75% of the enemy's army but apparently I'm not understanding the game much...

I guess the main army moved before the screenshot.
And yes, the answer is correct. If you control both sides of a strait you can't be blocked.

What happens to a countries colonial nations if I take all of their European, African and Asian lands in a peace deal?
When the "full annex" option was still part of the peace options, I seem to remember you'd inherit all of their CN, but that option has been removed, right?

When the "full annex" option was still part of the peace options, I seem to remember you'd inherit all of their CN, but that option has been removed, right?

Although full annex is not an express peace deal, the summary of the proposed deal will still say "we demand their full annexation" when you are actually taking all of their provinces. If it does not show this then you have missed one somewhere.

If you do successfully annex them then their CN will become your CN. You may need to spend some admin points reducing tariffs as the AI will have raised them far too high but otherwise the CN will usually be pretty loyal.

One thing to keep an eye on is colonies that are still growing. For example, a Brazilian CN will often have new colonies far inland that you cannot annex in the peace deal and this will prevent you from fully annexing the overlord (if the colonies are being established by the overlord) so you may need to occupy those colonies and burn them to the ground in order to get the peace deal to confirm that you are fully annexing the overlord.

That would have been my next question, thanks.

Three quick questions:

- Do land units take damage whenever a regiment dies, similar to naval units?
- If so, which units take damage? Adjacent, deployed or all?
- What kind of damage do they take? Does it work like casualty damage which directly translates into morale damage or is a modifier like the daily tick, which lowers your morale but does not count as damage?

Thanks in advance.
